Report: Wathan, Kapler possible finalists for manager position

Todd Zolecki reports the Phillies are finishing their first round of interviews in the search for a new manager.

He writes Dusty Wathan and Gabe Kapler are expected to be finalists for the position; meanwhile, Matt Klentak interviewed former Red Sox manager John Farrell for the job Wednesday.

As for timetable, Zolecki repeats the same thing we’ve been told all this time: The Phillies aren’t in a rush.
